-the musical words

Greetings to all, I am Valerie. And herein lies a glimpse of the random and at certain times, inane or insane thoughts that flit through my mind. I love God, music and my books :)

Chamberesque

Woots! First practice of Chamberesque today! I lugged my heavy violin to Talz's house. Sigh, my case is really heavy.. cos it's like partly made of wood. Quite a lot of parts actually. Ah wells, after not touching my violin for a couple of months my tone really... sucks. My pitching has gone off too. Darn. Marc's violin colour is sooo nice! And his tuning pegs and chin rest are BROWN!! So nice can?

So anyway, we played a bit of Canon, Time To Say Goodbye, Air on G and bits of stuff here and there. Chuan and Talz were on the flute, Em was on the piano. Marc and I were sitting on the floor with our violins and were playing variations of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star at one point. Introducing members present today..

Pianists - Chuan Li, Emily, Tallie and Me (the noobest one, hahaha)
Violinists - Marcus and Me
Flutists - Chuan Li and Tallie
Vocalists - Emily and Me

Florence plays the piano and flute too but she's sick so she didn't come today.
Then after that, Talz's maid cooked some Orh Bi Bur (according to chuan) and so we settled down to eat. Then Marcus had to clear the stuff out of his braces and went to the toilet upstairs. Talz, Em and I immediately got to work. Heh, Marc's birthday is this coming Wednesday but we decided to celebrate it early. So the three of us were in the kitchen, frantically fixing the candles and sticking it onto the cake and all. Chuan Li and Kenneth went upstairs to detain Marcus awhile.

Then they came down, Talz's maid dimmed the lights and we all sang the birthday song. Marcus was totally stunned. He froze on the stairs and stared at us. Then he went "Oh my God". About thrice I think. HAHAHA. Kodak moment! Then he made a wish, blew out the candles, cut the cake and we all settled down to eat. And as usual with Kenneth around, the conversation always deviates off to... well, stuff not linear. But goodness, I laughed so hard and sooo much that my face, throat and stomach hurts so badly! Gosh, when was the last time I ever laughed so hard and so spontaneously? Gosh, I miss those old times..
